There was a mingled expression Of
indignation and determination on his

LIGHT ASKED FOR.

Messrs. E'ditors: There recently
died in this immediate section of Feas-
terville township, the Rev. Colonel
Mayfeld, colored. We find 10y refer
ling to the diary of one of the signers
fthis, that he died. on tho 10th of last
November. This event Of course was
celebrated by the usual wake, and tho
next day by On unusually large at
tendance at tho funeral, with this
exception there was nothing, no moth
ing unusual about it. There had been
by some of tho negroes, q report cir
culated that he had been, or was
"conjured." or course no citizen OF
ordinary intelligence paid any atten.
ton to such 'sstuff" rs that, as it is
quite common for this class of our
citizens to imagine that they are "con.
iured" or tricked. This much by way
of introduction. On Tuesday the 9th
of this month, the usual quiet Of this
section was disturbed by the advent

SUCCESSFUL AaRIOULTURE.

MeSsTs. Editors: I sec q statement
in the News and Courier that Spar
tanburg farmer, in debt, and destitute
of supplies, by borrowing capital last
spring, was enabled to pay up his
Indebtedness this fall, have seven bales
Of cotton left, with plentiful supply
of necessary plantation produce fol
another year.
Now this is exactly that for which
have contending. Place the farmers
on cash basis, and prosperity will be
the result speedily in this State. Our
planters are very. generally working
people. Start them on a cash system
and success will follow. This man,
with only $3.50 borrowed capital the
iirst year, was ablo to pay up.
Can't our Legislature, whose object
is, or should be, to work for the good
of tho people, institute O good cur
rency for the State, by which the
planters can obtain cash to run their
farms? Provide currency sufficient
to enable tho people to work on cash
basis, and then will prosperity be a
reality; amendments and contentious
about liens and mortgages cease con-
suming time in our Legislative halls.
Party contentious and interests will be
abolished between the professionals
and planters, and laboring classes gen-
orally. All classes in every depart
ment of business, will rise above envy
and prejudice toward each other, and
general good will towards one another
will prevail. Salaries Of officials will
not create mutterings, and literature
will elevate the standard of morality
and science.
First of all establish and strengthen
the planting interest, the stamina Of
the State, on cash system. We do
not want a credit system of any sort
then there will be no need of abolish
ing the homestead law, and modifying
tho lien law so often that neither
planters nor merchants know what the
law is iii reference thereto.
The planters have the greatest risks,
vet no considerations for these con.
ting encies are made. His taxes must
be paid, swhatever evils may result
to him and his family. Drouths,
| freshets, stock loss, sickness, death, nc
reduction, no considerations; his taxes
| must be met to make comfortable the
soft places. Hence T say let our Leg,
islature first of all look after welfare
| of tho planters. We want 10 agricul
tural colleges or agricultural depart
ments. The planters are sufficiently
Intelligent to make the planting inter;
est q success on cash basis. A col
ored planter near mo, totally destitute
made, by being furnished, about $500
above expenses of a large family. W.
know how to farm.
Tho next strongest pillar of tht
State is education. But of this say
nothing now. s. NJ. ..
